Testimonials
Introduction
It may seem that these testimonials are too good to be true. After
all, NSR Meditation is learned by oneself from an inexpensive
manual in only three days. Yet the knowledge is specific,
powerful, and effective, providing a lifetime of freedom from
accumulating stress.
These testimonials are the actual unsolicited experiences of
people who had recently used the NSR Meditation learning materials
to teach themselves this natural, simple, enjoyable, and
refreshing mental technique, in their own words.
Believe it or not, these experiences are not at all
unusual. Anyone can improve their own life in just a few
minutes a day practicing this simple, natural technique of "diving
within".

NSR Helps at Work
"I completed session 6 this morning... It is strange how natural
the feeling is. I don't feel any need to control life or others
around me in order to maintain this peace...it is naturally
occurring. I love that.
"Last night was a very stressful night on the job (I work as a
field service engineer repairing complex machines). I was there
with another engineer to do a simple maintenance procedure and
when we were almost finished, faults started popping up everywhere
and it looked like the machine would be down for the next day (it
is a medical machine and therefore patients wouldn't get their
treatment the next day....bad) so there was a lot of stress
involved. My coworker was responding with a great deal of stress
and anger while I was very calm and...well, happy. Later on he
told me that he was really glad I was there because I was a
calming influence on him. He said he had a lot of stress and anger
issues to deal with...I did realize then that our calmness and
happiness is very obvious to those without it and that tells me a
lot about how I have been affected in the past 3 days.
"I have always been very calm and easy going on the outside, but
on the inside I have had lots of stress that doesn't have an
outlet...except through music and writing. Now I can't wait till
next week and the week after because I know that the meditation
has changed me for life."

NSR Makes Me Feel 15 Years Younger
"NSR has been very beneficial. I have certainly reaped the rewards
of the practice. It reignited a spark of creativity that had lain
dormant (or was suppressed by stress).
"Meditation has improved my ability to see contrast, subtle
differences, a sharper perception of reality. This in turn has
allowed me to identify opportunities for new methods, new products
and practices. From a creative energy perspective it makes me feel
15 years younger.
"I can literally pinpoint the period the level to which I have
been reenergised to--as a young engineer I was recognised as
being very creative. It is amazing really. But--I am sure you are
aware of these types of experiences :) .
"My biggest struggle is consistency in meditation and life style.
Perhaps it goes hand in hand with the lifestyle in Ireland. But I
think I am getting there. Certainly life is a vast improvement on
pre NSR."

Fantastic Things Have Happened
"So many fantastic things have happened as a result of meditating
everyday. I only wish I could convince my friends and family what
a wonderful experience it is and how much it has changed my entire
outlook on living (and I have only been meditating since January!
[four months]). For the first time in my life I feel like each
year will be better than the last, every experience more
beautiful.
"I used to have a lot of social anxiety, I now can talk and
interact with people much more easily. I am more open.
"I am a lot more self assured and confident.
"I used to suffer weekly bouts of extreme depression, something
that has now completely vanished.
"I used to feel anxious and unsure of my future, I still feel this
sometimes, but for the most part I have a sense that I just need
to keep pushing forward and that I will get where I want to be.
"I have always been a very creative person, and I now find that I
am more easygoing towards my projects. There is not much of the
old frenetic energy I used to feel, which makes creating things
more fun.
"I used to be very critical and am daily becoming more positive
about everything.
"Overall, I feel more optimistic and have more conviction than
doubt in my creative practice. There are days, and even weeks that
I feel more like my old self but for the most part everything
seems like it's getting better. In essence, I just don't take
everything as seriously as I used to. It's like the effortlessness
of meditation is becoming a part of how I live every day.
"How I wish someone had introduced me to this form of meditation as
a teenager."

Sports: My Calm And More Powerful Self
"I just wanted to share a positive post about my improvement in my
favourite sport Badminton. I've been practicing NSR since March
2007 and it has had a profound effect on all areas of my life,
including my presence at my local Badminton club. I am not a very
social person but I have noticed the effects first hand being one
of the dominant players there. Both socially and in a way
scientifically my calm and now more powerful self has made an
impact on the whole badminton club experience for everyone. Due to
my talent and clearly apparent development at club through NSR and
of course regular exercise, I feel important to this small
community of players. Members are pushing themselves harder and I
feel profoundly significant that I am pushing them up further...
In a quiet way I feel like a representative because I am having an
influence, which people find curious, in a good way!"

Energy and Lightness: A Huge Advantage For Students
"I started the program just under one month ago, and I was
convinced after 2 days that something different was going on here.
I'd meditated before, and gotten good results at times, but never
had hit that level where real transcendant energy was accessed.
In the first session I got to that place, realized I'd never been
there before, and laughed out loud as my mind stayed easily
focused in a non-thought space and new energy just coursed through
me. I just couldn't believe how easy it all was. Then after a
few weeks I began to notice the effects in my daily life. It
really has made the process of life fun--I can more easily place
things in perspective in real time and act accordingly, rather
than react from an emotional surface level to life's problems.
Life hasn't changed, but the way I live it definitely has. I read
in one of these testimonials that NSR made the person feel
'lighter'--I can't think of a better description of how I feel as
I go about my day.
"I can only hope more people will take advantage of this--it's very
exciting to think of all the problems in people's lives that NSR
could make real progress in solving. Also, I'm very interested in
the program aimed at children--the pressures children face all the
way through college pile huge amounts of stress on them. Equipped
with NSR as a coping and relaxation method, they could have a huge
advantage going through their formative years, understanding
themselves and their world better, and just being happier all
around. Thank you so much for this!"

NSR Has Changed Our Lives
"I just wanted to take a minute and THANK you so much, your
program has changed our lives. We (Michael and I) meditate
faithfully twice daily. We did not realize how much stress we
carried with us unknowingly. We have recommended your program to
several friends."

Lower Blood Pressure, Improved Attitude Toward Life
"I've been doing NSR meditation for 6 months now, and have found it
very beneficial. Not only did it help to lower my BP along with
lifestyle changes, but my attitude is so much better. There are
days that I can't wait to get into my meditation, to get rid of
stuff. I had been searching for this for many years. Thanks for
putting NSR out there for everyone to benefit from."

Feeling Calm And Relaxed
"Even though I am on day 3 of this technique, I have
already felt very calm and relaxed. I am not
physically reacting in an anxious or frustrated way to
people around me. It's early days but I believe this
technique could be the winning ticket for me. I
already have a great life but I knew I needed
something to help repair the damage of old habits to
allow me to fully open my heart and feel the love of my
life
. . .
"A week down the line and the affects are still good. I
have felt physicaly calm and cool. I lost my bank card and had a
minor accident in my car last week but I felt fine, I actually
laughed a bit! The baby and expectations at home have not got on
top of me......Yes, things are still going well.
"Thank you for making the program so accessible to the
masses. I hope to implement the technique to some of
the special needs students I teach."

Reduced Anxiety, Increased Energy
"Just a few things I've noticed since starting the NSR technique a
few weeks back --
"For one, on doing the brief periodic inventories I've watched my
total score go from the 50s, to the 30s, and now to the 20s by the
end of my 3rd week. Wow! I feel SO much less stress now than when
I started. Thank you.
"I've noticed, too, that I felt pretty 'stuck' mentally
(probably from all of the accumulated stress and anxiety) for
years; over the past couple of weeks I feel like my mind has
awakened again, and I'm reading much more than I have in years,
and find myself interested in many different subjects (I always
have been, but simply haven't had the energy to pursue them for
some time -- now, I do).
"I'm also finding myself becoming more discriminating in terms of
what I allow into my head (i.e., what I watch on TV, if at all)
and my body (I think I'm on the brink of giving up both coffee
and cigarettes ... if I needed stress reduction before, I'll
CERTAINLY need it when I try that, LOL).
"I continue to be amazed at the changes/benefits. Again, Wow!
Thanks."

Better Coping With Stressors
"Just have to say that even though I have only been practicing the
NSR technique for approximately a week so far I have seen HUGE
benefits in my work life.
"Previously I had been stressed to the
max with my work duties to the point that I was practically having
panic attacks on a daily basis and of course those only decreased
my ability to cope with the stressors I was under. Now I am able
to get through my day with drastically less stress than I was
feeling before. Nothing at work itself has changed, but I am just
coping better and dealing with it instead of feeling like it is
too much and wanting to simply run away from it all. Hope it
continues. B*) Thanks!"

Feeling Lighter
"Last night I tried to explain to my wife how I feek now. 'Lighter'
was the first word that came to mind. I feel lighter.
"I also feel as if I've somehow taken a brush and scrubbed my
brain. My thoughts are much more clear. It's truly amazing. I have
fibromyalgia and 'brain fog' has bothered me more than the pain
but for the first time in years brain fog isn't a big issue.
"Thank you, sincerely, for making NSR available. It is changing the
quality of my life."

Getting Along Better With Others
"There are great moments of peace and love to all, I have none of
the character issues that I used to have in the past in regards to
judging others. I have good relations now with people that used to
push my buttons and send me off in to some preprogrammed behavior,
this has obviously been a very good change for me."

Tears of Joy and Bliss
"I want to thank you SO much for your absoutely wonderful
NSR manual and audio.
"My very first session, after about 15 mintues I found a space of
bliss--Right before this I was feeling a lot of pain and some very
dark thoughts and memories were coming up...along with intense
tightness and pain in my shoulders and upper back. Then,
spontaneously, I imagined myself picking up that pain as a layer
(pain, thought, judgment) and looking under it--When I did this I
imagined and felt a light come out from under the pain and I felt
it as joy and bliss--This is when the tears came and the bliss
came--the tears just poured out and I smiled and smiled. How
wonderful--:)
"I am so thankful to have found NSR---I have always wanted to
formally learn TM [Transcendental Meditation®], but it is just so
expensive that I was turned off-------Now, after finding NSR, I
feel as if I am finally waking up and getting my power back--and
so simply :) And, I feel strongly inspired to continue the
practice, learn from your forum and someday share it with others.
I am so utterly grateful and look forward to future
contact.
"I must also say that my amazing results are continuing- Remember
my telling you that I had a sort of vision my first session of
lifting my bind mind as a layer and that being my release point
where I felt awareness----saw light? Well, it seems the visions,
so far, always preceed the release for me--I have done 4 sessions
and with each, a vision and then a release. The last time it was
simply my arm/hand pushing away a raft and it gliding out onto
still water----drifting away, then a wash of peace, blissful
emptiness. I am amazed that after everything I have tried to
realize that all the methods were, I believe way too complicated--
-Or maybe it is that the student is just now ready. I feel I
understand more than I can even express in words and I trust that
intuition. What a gift!"

Energy, Better Sleep: Truly Amazed
"I am truly amazed at how something so elegant and simple to do
can be so deeply healing. I feel "in touch" within myself in ways
that I remember but haven't experienced for a long long time. I
look forward to my time doing the technique [early morning before
I swim] and in the evening before dinner. My mind starts to do
the mantra without my effort, then my body relaxes and I get this
sense of energy pulsing through me along with this humming/buzzing
sound sensation like cicadas and katydids in the heat of summer in
the midwest. I think it is my brain singing to me.
"I am sleeping more deeply and seem to have more energy as well.
In addition, my anger and frustration at daily events in my life
has lessened by about 80%. I take things more in stride, am more
calm, and lighter with a sense of perspective and humor about
things. When I am in the middle of a busy day, I know I will have
that time for me when I get home. It is very deeply nourishing and
healing. And, this is just the second week so I can only imagine
how much it will improve as time goes on. I am so glad I took the
chance and ordered the CD and the book. It is really really
helping me."
